I think part of it is idiot doctors. They over prescribe stuff like this all too often.
When I moved to Chicago, I had some trouble sleeping and some minor anxiety. I mentioned it during my physical and figured he'd give me some mild sleeping pill or something. Instead he somehow diagnosed me with having depression and put me on some pretty serious stuff. It made me paranoid and killed my drive and creativity. So I went back and he upped the dose and put me on a very strong sleeping pill too. Before I knew it, I was just a totally different person. It sucked coming off, but I realized that I was ten times better with nothing in my system.
All I needed was some exercise and maybe some melatonin, this doc had me pegged as someone mentally disturbed.
